Description

The BCS is a tiny 16 step sequencer that provides CV and Gate out. It can also be used as a handheld CV keyboard.

Boards for this fun little kit were handed out to everybody who attended Knobcon 2016. If you’re wondering what to do with your board, or want to get one of your very own, you’ve come to the right place.

The sequencer has its own internal clock to get you up and running in a hurry, but you can connect an external clock if you need greater control of tempo or want to sync with other devices.

This module has lots of LEDs and is very shiny, but only two of them are ever on at a time which keeps it from loading down your power supply.

Sequence can be set to any length up to 16 steps by using LOOP feature

Setting a step to REST holds previous pitch and doesn’t fire GATE

In Standby mode, sequencer can be used as a tiny keyboard without altering programmed sequence
